Thanks!

Looking to go from Orpington to Tonbridge, and return Sevenoaks to Orpington. Can I just get a Orpington to Tonbridge return (£7.25), or do I need 2 singles?

Here's a link to a YouTube video that shows someone completing the Superloop challenge in 6 hrs 53 mins!

Is there a reason why SWR long-distance trains you cant reserve a seat? Travelling from London to Weymouth is 3 hours which seems silly not being able to reserve a seat when London - Birmingham is half the time!

Looking at people doing the Superloop Challenge He did it in 7 hours 33 mins He did it in 9 hours 16 mins Geoff did it in exactly 9 hours I reckon if one went for the 1st bus on a Saturday morning, one could avoid all the traffic SL7 Dingwall Road / East Croydon Station - Heathrow Central Bus...

Having watched this video on YouTube, I would love to do this but not sure if what he did is still valid. Anyone else done this challenge? 03:05 Trafalgar Square Bus N9 to heathrow Airport 04:39 Heathrow T5 Bus 7 to Slough 05:31 Slough Bus Station Bus X74 to High Wycombe 06:30 High Wycombe...

What's the most remote bus stop on the TFL network? I reckon it's Pilgrims Way served by the 246, as the nearest bit of civilization is about 30 mins walk away.

I was curious when the transition from steam trains (having a group of people in the cab) to solo driving (I assume in diesel and electric trains) happened? Was there a hug backlash among the drivers and unions?

What do people think of this news clip from the BBC? It's incorrect as the 64 will stop when the lower deck is full and play the announcement "There are seats on the upper deck" until people move up. The 433 is another great example of a bus that's too small for the route. It often gets full...

Pre-Covid, I had a 1st class ticket from East Croydon - Victoria as I had better luck getting a seat. Only had ticket checks maybe once a year. Also many years ago I had a 1st class ticket from East Croydon - Guildford, as even though it was going against the flow, the SWT train to Guildford in...

Pre-covid I had to pay for 1st class to get a seat in rush hour. Now it's not so bad so I can sit in standard.

Looking at the 07:42 Guildford to Vauxhall on a weekday. As it starts in Guildford, I guess it's very easy to get a seat? How reliable is that service? Returning on the 17:37, would I get a seat at Vauxhall, or would I need to go up to Waterloo?

I'm really enjoying the new 433 buses (Caetano e.City Gold). It blasts up the steep and windy hills much better! But for some reason the information displays sometimes don't work, typical technology :rolleyes: However, I think there are less seats in the previous models.

Is anyone here who was not able to travel and what alternative did the TOC provide? I can imagine many people missing important appointments!

Freedom passes have been blocked before 0930 but I have continued using mine and have been stopped. I've been commuting to work on it and last month I was caught by a ticket inspector. I gave over my personal details as asked by the inspector and was told that that I would be receiving a...
